View Full Version : Classic Hobbies Offroad - Akron Ohio
adamliehr 04-21-2008, 06:07 AM Steve is starting to build the track today! Who's all lookin to play in the dirt in Akron Ohio?
I know a few oval racers will be making the transition. I think Frank Peachock and I (maybe Joel Biro) will be running 10th Truck. I think Mike Pavlick and Jeff will be bringing their 8th buggies.
Adam
Mike Pavlick 04-21-2008, 07:12 AM you are right Adam we will have nitro burning in 1/8th style, thought you would to?
The layout on paper looks great, good for electric&nitro

adamliehr 04-21-2008, 11:37 AM Mike,
If you let me wheel your's I'll do it. I don't have the $$$$$ to pick one up.
My truck was a gift... lol or else I woudln't have it either.
What truck class do you guys wanna run? Mod/Lipo? Stock?
-Adam
badassrevo 04-21-2008, 11:59 AM Will you guys let ELECTRIC 1/8th buggies and truggies run with the nitro 1/8th scale?
I will be out to check out the track.
Please post an address so I can map quest it.
Thanks,
Doug
badassrevo 04-21-2008, 12:02 PM 1/10th truck should be an open class if you want to have a good turn out.
any motor / any battery. check out the Pro series rules for 1/10th nito truck and Monster truck. They are running the gas and electric together in these two classes.
slackr612 04-21-2008, 03:02 PM i stopped by the shop today just to start getting back into this.
word on the street is the track may be ready for this coming weekend. so far the progress looks great.

Mike Pavlick 04-21-2008, 03:34 PM the layout we have drawn up is going to take some time to do.
but you never know what could happen for opening day.
HEY STEVE, how many people are we going to have up there to help? we could start
asking for volunteers soon
ccm399 04-21-2008, 03:53 PM Hey Mike,
Any idea of a start time? Tracks opens at "X" racing at "Y" that type of thing. Also entry fees? First class second class?
Doug is right Open electric classes work really well in off-road.
Oh, one last thing....does the timing system accept personal transponders?
bill941 04-21-2008, 04:05 PM I am in for 1/10 th truck and 1/10 buggy once I get the buggy up and running.

well I take a stab at it, Im pretty sure sunday will be the day.
start time and fees will be decided by the owner steve (the general)
IM sure electric will be decided on what MEDINA is doing because we want to work with all the tracks maybe get together and have a ohio battle
MEDINA-CLASSIC-BUMPS AND JUMPS- NOW THAT WOULD BE COOOL!!!
AND YES Chris the AMB does accept personals
thanks guys keep it coming Im sure we can get all the details together
soon

You can race in the Pro Series race at Medina. They have changed the rules to allow 1/10 brushless trucks to run with the 1/10th nitro and the same in Monster Truck. Now if they would ony do the same for 1/8th truggy and buggy.
NickRummy 04-22-2008, 02:30 PM Would it still be considered a 1/10th scale MT? Has a 2 speed in it but I stretched the chassis 1 3/4" or so. Made it for a track basher.
badassrevo 04-22-2008, 02:45 PM google Pro Series and check out the rules
ICEMAN96 04-22-2008, 03:33 PM Don't forget about 1/5 scale.Im in for another class as well..Can't wait
Mike Pavlick 04-22-2008, 03:36 PM how many 1/5th guys do we have in the area??Im interested to see..
Kyosho Racer 04-22-2008, 04:13 PM I'll also be running monster turck. Revo 3.3

Mike Pavlick 04-23-2008, 09:57 AM Steve we are coming out there tonight to form those jumps and a few other things.
slackr612 04-23-2008, 02:39 PM does anyone know if the pits will be indoor or outdoor? i really like the pit setup on the indoor oval.
NickRummy 04-23-2008, 02:40 PM What will the practice fee be? Per truck or just one fee for the day? What time does practice start?
Mike Pavlick 04-23-2008, 03:15 PM What will the practice fee be? Per truck or just one fee for the day? What time does practice start?
I would have to say the pitting would be outside dont need all the dirt indoors that would be the smartest.
practice fee will be per day as of sunday.
Im going to get there pretty early probably around 8:00am
go over track and things of that nature
we will get all the exact details tonight when I see steve
